\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Wangzha <\/span>Shangzun said the following in a meeting with holy and virtuous ones and high monks held at the United International World Buddhism Association Headquarters recently:<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cHoly and virtuous ones must first possess the demeanor of a holy being. Humility, prudence, honesty, and selflessness are the most basic kindness in human nature, and benefiting living beings with great compassion and practicing the Bodhi way are the must-have cultivation qualities. But in the past several years, I have heard a lot of gossip about some dharma kings, venerables, and rinpoches in the society spreading rumors by saying they could practice the Dharma of Inviting Buddha to Bestow Amrit. Novice people mistakenly believe it is accurate, so they get deceived and take refuge in them. Some lady even asked me to invite Buddha to bestow Amrit on her.<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>I will state it clearly today. Based on my practice, I don\u2019t even have one percent of the Dharma power to successfully practice the Dharma of Inviting Buddha to Bestow Amrit! Inviting Buddha to Bestow Amrit is the quintessence of the supreme jewel. Upon receiving the initiation of Amrit, one can attain the holy state in tangible form on the spot. As for extending the years of one\u2019s life, it is only natural for it to happen. But unless a Buddha, a Marvelous Enlightenment Bodhisattva, or an Equal Enlightenment Bodhisattva, no one has the Dharma capability to invite a Buddha to bestow Amrit!<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>As for the dharma kings of all the major sects in the whole world, no matter if they profess to be the reincarnation of some Marvelous Enlightenment Bodhisattva or Equal Enlightenment Bodhisattva, they are the same as me. They don\u2019t even have a one percent chance of successfully practicing the Dharma of Inviting Buddha to Bestow Amrit. They are not qualified. In a word, their inferiority is enormous! They have yet to reach the height in the Five Vidyas alone. They are not Bodhisattvas at all! Their reincarnation status is fake! What I said is the truth. In modern history, other than Pabongka Rinpoche and Jampa Geshe (\u964d\u5df4\u683c\u897f), there has not been one precedence. Jampa Geshe was an Equal Enlightenment Bodhisattva, and Pabongka Rinpoche was the actual incarnation of a Marvelous Enlightenment Bodhisattva. He was not the Mahavirocana Buddha!<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>I assert here that no dharma king, venerable, or great rinpoche of any significant sect in the world today has attained the ability to invite Buddha to bestow Amrit. Not one!<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0I shall bear the causal responsibility for what I say!<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>As far as the Amrites that were invoked at the time when\u00a0Expounding the Absolute Truth via Heart Sutra<\/em>\u00a0by H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III was published, neither Gar Tongstan Jiaozun nor Kaichu Ruzun had the qualification to invite the Buddhas to bestow it. Gold Button Levels 1 to 3 cannot invoke the Buddhas, and the Blue Button levels are even far worse and unqualified. The Buddhas came to congratulate and bestowed the Amrites on that day. That was not caused by someone who practiced Dharma successfully. It was due to the Buddhas in the ten directions showing the causal conditions to prove that the Buddhist book\u00a0Expounding the Absolute Truth via Heart Sutra<\/em>\u00a0is the teaching of Dharma by a true Buddha.<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Separately, there is the kind of Amrit called Dharma\u00a0rain from flowers and trees<\/em>\u00a0(\u82b1\u6a39\u6cd5\u96e8\u7518\u9732), but that is poles apart from the actual Amrit of pure quintessence and is not the Amrit bestowed by the Buddha. It is, at most, a manifestation by the Bodhisattvas in the space. Buddha\u2019s quintessential Amrit must be given in a bowl, without one drop left outside the container. In the world today, other than H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, no other tremendously holy being has the Dharma ability to perform Inviting Buddha to Bestow Amrit. Whoever says that they can invite Buddha to bestow Amrit is lying and cheating. Alas! H.H. Dorje Chang Buddha III, being able to give Amrit, denies He has the ability. The Buddha who can do it has rejected it, yet the ordinary people, on the other hand, are bragging and cheating. It is truly miserable!<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Among all the great holy and virtuous ones and the high monks who are sitting here today, and all the great dharma kings, supreme dharma kings, and venerable ones in the world, no one can invite Buddha to bestow Amrit, no matter whose reincarnation he is certified to be! If someone could do it, can you point that person to me so I can check them out? If they could have the Amrit bestowed, then I shall prostrate myself to them, lower my head, and call myself a disciple to them. If one cannot have humility and prudence but only brag vaingloriously and pompously, how could one possibly have Amrit bestowed? If they keep talking nonsense carelessly, they can only be destined for hell.<\/p>

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>You must pay serious attention from now on. The only determination of whether someone is holy or ordinary is to see what levels of the robe someone wears and check that person against the 128 evil and erroneous views! Otherwise, you are bound to fall prey to deceit!\u201d<\/p>
